Corpus Juris Civilis--”The Body of Civil Law” (528 – 534) Massive incorporation of Roman legal thought and precedents, all collected in one place in order to provide a coherent body of law for the Roman (i.e. Byzantine) Empire. Written in Latin—allowed for easier translation in the West. Basis of Byzantine law for the next 900 years Used as the foundation of modern law by many of the kingdoms of Western Europe. Most permanent and lasting legacy of Justinian’s rule.
